If you want to get into the sport and your on a budget the Projumps are definatly the way to go
Customer service is top quality and at 135 inluding next day delivery they are a bargain.

At 65kg i'd reccomend getting the M80s or possibly the M90's if your atheltic and want to do extreme stuff

Also where abouts are you from there maybe some people or group local to you

*confirms that*^^

yeah PJ's are basic in comparison to others, but a nice solid make to learn on, i'd say the 80's probably, the 60's would be too soft for you, if you aim to do any jumping at all that is

elite's have been delayed significantly due to design flaws, they're also gonna be more expensive.  Stick with the originals.

powerstriders are powerizer/flying locust stilts i think, probably not the best idea to get them.

hmm, one of the reviews refers to them as rizers (hit see all reviews it;s th bottom one)

...i say go with the pro-jumps, seeing as people have reported quite a few problems with rizers, and play.com only gives 1 image, that looks like PJ's though it's such low quality it's hard to tell.
